ncr-writing

ncr-writing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from RBraga01/Quality-Engineering-Skills. It costs 59 tokens per session (2,213 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for writing a non-conformance report (NCR), the factual record of a product, material, or service that does not meet a stated requirement. It covers objective evidence, severity grading, disposition, and segregation of affected items.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for incoming-inspection failures, production defects, final-inspection rejections, customer returns, or product-related audit findings. It helps document requirements, measurements, affected quantities, evidence, and severity.
Why use it?
It helps record exactly what is wrong without mixing in unproven causes or solutions. This creates a defensible quality record for audits, customer reviews, and later corrective-action work.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

ncr-writing scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Non-Conformance Report (NCR) Writing

When to use

Write an NCR whenever a product, material, or service does not conform to a specified requirement:

  • Incoming inspection failure
  • In-process defect found at any production step
  • Final inspection rejection
  • Customer return or field complaint
  • Audit finding on a product characteristic

The non-negotiable rule

An NCR describes WHAT is wrong, not WHY.

Root cause belongs in the CAPA / 8D. The NCR is the factual record of the non-conformance itself. Mixing root cause speculation into the NCR contaminates the record.

An NCR is a controlled quality record and may be used in audits, customer reviews, and legal contexts. All content must be objective and defensible.

Required NCR Checklist

☐ Requirement clearly referenced (drawing/specification number and revision) ☐ Actual value or observed defect recorded with quantified measurement ☐ Gap between required and actual explicitly defined ☐ Evidence attached or referenced and traceable to this NCR ☐ Severity correctly classified — grade higher when in doubt ☐ Affected quantity and population at risk identified ☐ Material physically segregated and identified before NCR is closed ☐ Detection point reflects where the defect was found, not where it originated ☐ Disposition defined and approved by authorised personnel ☐ Containment actions documented with timestamps (if applicable) ☐ Language is objective — no subjective terms, no root cause, no opinion ☐ NCR traceable to production records, batch records, and inspection logs

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
